Default Dyna bag for road trips

I have been looking around for a good travel back for my street bob for when I start doing longer road trips this summer with my HOGS group. I don't want saddlebags, looking for something roomy that can be safely secured to my bike. Have been looking at T-Bags, but if anyone out there has an opinion or review of a good brand, let me know.
I do not have a sissy bar to attach anything to, so this would all be strapped to my fender.

I just got one of these off eBay for $85 shipped brand new and it will provide good back support with lots of room. I have a luggage rack (no sissy bar) but you don't need one if you put something on the fender to protect it. I do also have saddles but don't want to use them all the time.

I would recommend a rigid or detachable solo rack for the bike. You can mount a bag or just about anything to it and it will also protect your fender from damage. The detach is nice because it comes off when you don't need it. I use a tunnel bag like the ones found here.

Is your rack from HD? That sounds like a good idea. How does it mount?

I got the rack brand new from a guy on here for $50 shipped but don't know if it's a HD brand or not. I doubt it. It mounts to the solo and passenger seat screws on the fender but if you had a 2 up seat, which it looks like you do, you could just set the bag on top of that and strap to the rear signals and shock mounts.
